Delayed installation with little to no information
Unfortunately from looking through the community posts, poor installation experiences are common. I placed an order for Virgin 1 Gig broadband and phone on 5 January 2025. We live on small cul-de-sac road that already has Virgin Media and were given an install date of 8 January 2025. The installation engineer arrived late in the evening and giving credit where its due, he was brilliant, spending a lot of time looking, but ultimately could not find the Virgin cable to our house. A pre-install site survey was booked for 10 January 2025. With the daylight the pre-install person found the loose cable for our house. A new installation date was booked for 13 January 2025. Another installation engineering arrived to complete the install, but said that there was a fault with the cable and he could not complete the install. We have subsequently had a rolling preinstall date which keeps moving to the following day and have been given three new installation dates: 29 January, 11 February and now 25 February. A family member works for the local council and no works requests have been raised. What is most ludicrous about this and absolutely unacceptable from a business and customer service perspective is the lack of information or the apparent inability of anyone to answer three very basic and simple questions: What actually needs to be done? When will it be done? What is causing the ongoing delays?230Views0likes10CommentsRegarding new broadband connection in a newly moved house
Connection socket Hub 4 router I've just moved into a new house and am looking for a new broadband connection. However, I found a Virgin wall connection socket, and the previous tenant left a Hub 4. How can I check if the fiber cable is still connected and ready to go if I order a new connection?Please can someone help me with my order and email address
Hi all, I have been having an issue with my order and my email. I'm out of contract for my virgin media plan and when I try to put an order through, the confirmation is sent to the wrong email address that I can't change. I don't get any confirmation email and I don't know if the order has went through. My o2 tariff has randomly removed the volt benefits like a new order is going through but I'm still on my old plan. If it helps, my order reference is XS1000143135. Thank you3.9KViews0likes0CommentsStarting a new separate contract under same address.
As I've seen some older posts stating that it's possible to open another contract under my name/account as my mother has been with VM for 14+ years. VM telephone team did not offer any decent price reductions as we wanted to just cut off the Tv/Landline services and only stick to broadband and seeing the deals for new customers astounds me. Ideally we would want to use the existing broadband before I start a new contract. My mothers contract should be ending on the 26th this month and we wouldn't want to be without internet so I've been thinking of opening a contract of my own to start early as I don't know how long it would take for VM to deliver. Any information/tips/advice would be greatly appreciated.Solved2.4KViews0likes5CommentsKeen to join but still not available after months?
Virgin Media has been installing cables for months in my area - but when checking the website it still says unavailable, if I check round the postcode round the corner it says 'coming soon', and now when I check my address it doesn't even have my house number listed and asks me to report it to VM, which I did a couple of weeks ago but haven't heard anything since. I live in Elton in Chester, Cheshire - am keen to know when sign-ups will be available as it's been so long now and it doesn't look like anymore work is ongoing - I even have a VM exchange box just over the road from my house which has been there for over a month, so seeing everything there and ready to setup without the option to do so is frustrating. I've tried getting in touch through online chat but unfortunately didn't get anywhere 😞435Views0likes2Comments
